This year’s winner of the House Category at the World Architecture Festival is located in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. The judges said of their selection: “This tall thin house on a narrow plot is a holistic piece of architecture…that is a simple yet elegant solution to a common problem in developing cities and offers an easily repeatable typology. It deals elegantly with issues of security, privacy, climate and light in a poetic yet economical way”. We think it is absolutely beautiful.

Even better if the plants are edible. I am assuming some are?
Wonderful post….I had seen something similar from New Zealand where they were using rows of rain gutter material to garden. They were hung in a vertical row with chains and all the smaller greens were growing beautifully. I LOVE the idea that every person can grow something, even in a city. What a great house !! Thanks for sharing…
I love the quality of the interior spaces but not so much the facade!
Very cool!
